YouPeopleAreCrazy:rickycal78: Uh huh, and do Dago, Wop, Kike, Mick, Spic, etc have other meanings besides their derogatory ones? Maybe meanings that existed before they were used as derogatory names for various ethnic groups? No? Fark off then.

Yanks_RSJ: Okay, now tell me the alternate meaning for any of those words that isn't offensive.

Oneofthesedays: But those aren't homonyms...

Dago:derivative of diego, Portugese for deckhand, or common Spanish name

Wop:the sound a helicopter makes

Mick:short for McClanahan, MacDonald, etc

Hell yes 'spade' also means a type of shovel. But there is a large group of people, both black and white, where it still means something else.

At dinner earlier this evening, my friend was laughing at something one of his customers had said this past weekend. Some lady at his salon was debating whether or not a petition should be started against all the anti-semitic elevators in Montreal, because one must press SS to go to the basement.

Rufus Lee King:No one suggested that we "eliminate" politically correct people. The point was that if we remove all words which are "offensive" from the language, there will eventually be none left. Hey, let's burn all the "offensive" books while we're at it. We can start with The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, and go from there.

Considering your known overt racism on here, and God knows what in real life, I highly doubt you are outraged because all the "good" words are being taken from you.

rickycal78:Oneofthesedays: RabidJade: I can't wait for the politically correctness fad to fade away. Every word can offend someone so lets just get rid of them all.

Intriguing! How do you propose we eliminate the politically correct people?

You do realize he wasn't saying get rid of politically correct people right? It was a sarcastic "words can offend people so lets get rid of them all"

Do yourself a favor, go to the politics tab and learn to properly troll.

No I was serious! Really people?

/facepalm

Yeah I believed that they intended to commit pre-meditated murder on a large section of the public and was inquiring on how they were going to attempt this...

As I pointed out to someone else upthread, considering the stupidity you showed in your earlier posts it really wouldn't have surprised me.

And if you guys think that they named it after the flat ended variety of shovel, you are dumber than you sound.

Again...hell yes it is just another word out of the dictionary. But if you can't come to the realization that more than a couple of people (not me you ig'nant farkers) would see it in the other connotation...well, I guess I can't help you.

However they came up with that name, someone in Toyota marketing should have stood up and said "Hey...wait a minute..." Out of the tens of thousands of possible words for this weird little car, that was probably not a good one.How much you wanna bet they'll change it?

I post a lot of "stupidity". Anything specific?

Awww shiat. For some reason I had you mixed up with YouPeopleAreCrazy. Sorry about that.

rickycal78:YouPeopleAreCrazy: And if they had called it the Toyota Dago, Wop, Kike, Mick, Spic, etc, etc...that would be OK with you guys?

Unfortunately, words still do have meanings. As a species, we haven't fully progressed beyond that yet.

Uh huh, and do Dago, Wop, Kike, Mick, Spic, etc have other meanings besides their derogatory ones? Maybe meanings that existed before they were used as derogatory names for various ethnic groups? No? Fark off then.

That sounds like something the Cacaophony Society would cook up just to get some idiot's knickers in a twist.
